Frequently asked questions

Why choose a saddle stool?

The saddle stool is designed to support an active sitting/standing posture that supports your natural body movements. The shape of the seat tilts your pelvis slightly forward, creating a healthy, natural S-curve in your back. The illustration shows what this posture looks like.

The illustrations also show the difference between standing and sitting, and the effect of pelvic tilt when using a saddle stool.

When you adopt an active sitting posture with a slight forward pelvis tilt, you relieve pressure on your lower back. This simultaneously reduces stress on your knees, ankles, and feet. Just like standing, this posture promotes deeper breathing, allowing you to absorb more oxygen, and reduces pressure on your organs.

Although the human body is naturally designed to stand and move, prolonged standing can still be stressful. In many work situations, posture is quite static, leading to tension and pressure on the legs and feet. The saddle stool offers a solution: it relieves pressure and helps you adopt a healthier, more dynamic posture while working.

The illustrations clearly show the difference between standing, sitting, and the influence of a saddle stool on pelvic position.
